Commander Cheng caught up with Deputy Brigadier Han and asked, "Deputy Brigadier, Tunliu County is less than ten miles ahead. Should we take down Tunliu County first, or go straight to Changzhi?"
Deputy Brigadier Han said: "Have you contacted the underground party organization in Tunliu City?"
"We got in touch." Captain Cheng nodded and said, "Tunliu County originally had a Japanese gendarmerie squadron, and then a puppet battalion, but yesterday most of the troops were dispatched to Lu'an and Changzhi, so now Tunliu County There is only one gendarmerie squad of the Japanese army left in Liucheng, plus one company of the puppet army.”
"Deputy Brigadier, Tunliu only has such a small force."
"Our 772 regiment was able to defeat them with a single charge."
"This is simply fat meat that is delivered to your mouth, it would be a pity not to eat it."
Deputy Brigadier Han shook his head and said: "No, our main task is to mobilize the 37th Division of the Japanese Army, and the sooner we mobilize, the better for us. It is imperative to attack Xiang County, but it is unnecessary to attack Tunliu."
"Order the troops to bypass Tunliu County and go directly to Changzhi, and directly attack Changzhi!"
"Yes!" Captain Cheng agreed and said again, "Commissioner, pass me the order!"
Deputy brigade commander Han's order was quickly conveyed.
Taiyuan, Headquarters of the First Japanese Army in Shanxi.
It was already past one o'clock in the morning, but the war room of the headquarters was still brightly lit.
Yoshio Shinozuka, Takayoshi Tanaka, and Nozawa Norio and more than a dozen staff officers have not left work yet, and they are all eagerly waiting for the news ahead.
All the radio stations in the telecommunications class are on.
Even the high-powered walkie-talkie was on.
The sound of sending and receiving alarms has never stopped.
Operators listened to the signal with earphones and recorded dots.
When a sheet is full, it will be sent to the translator immediately, and the translator will translate it into words according to the code book.
In the end, telegrams full of words were brought together in front of the case of intelligence officer Nozawa Norio.
After flipping through one of the telegrams, Nozawa Norio's face suddenly changed, and then he stood up and walked into the war room with the telegram.
"General! The Changzhi Gendarmerie calls urgently!"
Nozawa Norio walked up to Shinozuka Yoshio.
Shinozuka Yoshio didn't reach out to take it, but waved his hand and said, "Read."
Nozawa launched a telegram and read aloud: "Headquarters: At 0:3 p.m., Changzhi Beiguan was bombarded by the Chinese Army. The artillery firepower of the Chinese Army was very intensive. The artillery should be 75 caliber mountain guns and 70 caliber guns. 10 infantry artillery, the number should be between 20 and [-]!"
Including Takashi Tanaka, everyone looked at Yoshio Shinozuka in unison.
The Southward Detachment of the 386th Brigade of the Eighth Route Army has such a powerful artillery, and it should undoubtedly be the main force.
Shinozuka Yoshio also thought so, and immediately shouted: "Order, the 37th Division will go south immediately to help Changzhi!"
"Hayi!" Nozawa Norio paused, hurried back to the telecommunications department, first drafted the telegram, and then ordered the operator to convert it into dots and dashes and send it to the 37th Division in Xixiang County.
Xixiang County.
No Yuichiro, head of the 37th Division, and Hiroshi Hamada, chief of staff, stood on the tower of Dongguan City.
While admiring the night view, the two old devils were also discussing the whereabouts of the main force of the 386 brigade.
"Hamada-kun, which direction do you think the main force of the 386 brigade will go?" No Yuichiro said.
"Division commander, I don't think either direction is the main force of 386, or both directions."
"What does this mean?" Noyuichiro asked in confusion, "Why can't I understand?"
"What I mean is that the 386th brigade is basically divided into two, and the strength of the troops going south and going north should be about the same."
"This is also the usual practice of the Eighth Route Army, because no matter which route is eaten, the other route can survive."
"However, being able to retain half of the troops in such an unprecedented sweep is enough for the Eighth Route Army to be called a victory."
"Your point of view is a bit different." No Yuichiro said again, "Then, what is the purpose of spending so much time on the 386 trip and capturing so many prisoners of the Imperial Association Army?"
Hamada Hirodao: "It's nothing more than confusing the public. Let us guess which direction the main force of the 386 brigade is in, so as to ignore the fact that neither direction is the main force of the 386 brigade, so we dare not divide our forces to pursue it!"
Having said this, Hamada Hiroshi continued: "Division commander, please forgive me, I am afraid we have missed the opportunity to wipe out the 386 brigade! Now whether we go south or go north, we can only wipe out half of its troops. .”
"Hamada-kun, this is just your guess." Noyuichiro said with a smile, "But I think that the main force of the 386th Brigade of the Eighth Route Army should have gone south to Changzhi."
As soon as the words fell, a communications staff officer hurried up to the Chengguan.
"Division commander!" The communications staff paused, "The headquarters sent an urgent call, ordering our division to go south immediately to help Changzhi!"
"Hamada-kun, it seems that the judgment of your Excellency the Commander is consistent with mine." Noyuichiro smiled, and then shouted again, "Order, all infantry regiments and divisions directly under the brigade go south to Changzhi immediately!"
"Hayi!" Hamada Hirokazu suddenly nodded.
At this time, at the North Chengguan of Changzhi County.
The battle has entered a white-hot stage.
A charge of the 772 regiment was just disintegrated by the Japanese army.
"Regimental Commander!" The commander of the 1st Battalion, who was in charge of the main attack, said with a dark face, "The devil's machine gun firepower is too dense, can you let the artillery cover Beicheng Pass again?"
Captain Cheng said angrily: "If I knew it earlier, I should have two rapid-fire guns!"
"Yes." The 1st Battalion Commander said, "If there were two rapid-fire guns, Beichengguan would have been taken!"
Commander Cheng then turned his head to Deputy Brigadier Han and said, "Deputy Brigadier, the devils at Beicheng Pass are so cunning that they actually hollowed out the city wall and built heavy machine gun fortifications. Our mountain artillery can't hit them at all."
"Why don't we go in another direction, let's go to the east gate gate or the south gate gate instead?"
"No." Deputy Brigadier Han flatly refused, "There is no turning back in the bow, and now we can only bite the bullet and fight, otherwise Yoshio Shinozuka will definitely become suspicious if we switch."
"This shouldn't be the case." Captain Cheng said, "The old devil is not that smart."
"Yoshio Shinozuka, the old devil, is smarter than you think, otherwise he can be the commander of the first army stationed in Shanxi?" Deputy Brigadier Han said with a muffled snort, "Order the artillery, and hit half a base number again." shells."
"Deputy Brigadier, this is too wasteful." Chief Cheng said distressedly.
Chapter 258 Fight to the death (700 votes plus updates)
Yoshio Shinozuka didn't go to sleep until after two o'clock in the morning.
After only sleeping for less than four hours, I got up at six o'clock in the morning and came to the war room.
